The Lost Forty is the result of a surveying error by early logging companies, who kind of forgot to clearcut this spot in the 1880s. It's now a Scientific and Natural Area preserving one of the last chunks of native old-growth forest in Minnesota.

I also recommend the Forest History Center if you're in the area:
